Income inequality it not a problem. Poverty might be. Unemployment might be. But no one is harmed because someone has more than them. Envy and resentment are socially harmful evils. Frankly, envy is a bigger problem for the US than income inequality. When you see the words 'income inequality', you should immediately recognize you're seeing an argument based on a negative and socially evil emotion.

What do you expect. We have an economy that is geared to allowing the banks and financial institutions to bleed the middle class through inflation, unearned income, and outright theft and you wonder what is happening. First place to start prosecute the banksters whom the Washington Moron Crowd claims committed no crimes. That is bull and not a single major candidate who is running, nor anyone in Congress that I know of is advocating that we do this. What does that tell you? Second why do we allow banks to create money from nothing and lend it to us, both the country and individuals at interest. That is crazy. It forces inflation because there has to be a constantly rising money supply to pay of the ever increasing loans and our government would not have debt at all if they did what they allow the banking system, which is create money out of thin air. It is not about taxes, it is about a banking system that is bleeding us dry. lj
